Not started #888888 The article hasn't been started yet. You can help by creating it. Stub #FF5555 The article is either a very short article or a stub that will need a lot of work to bring it to A-Class level. Start class #77BBFF The article has a decent amount of content, but it is still very weak in certain areas, and may lack a table. B-Class #FFFF66 The article is "almost there" but it may be missing one of the following: references, balance of content, NPOV or an important section. Alternatively, the English may need a comprehensive rewrite to make it flow. A-Class #FFDCF8 The article provides a well-written and complete description of the topic, as described in How to write a Great Article. It includes a well-written introduction to the topic, and an appropriate series of headings to break up the article. It should have sufficient external literature references, preferably from the "hard" literature rather than websites. It should be well illustrated, with no copyright problems.

It would be useful to set comment on both plays in the context of what was fashionable in the courtly theatre at the time he was writing (c. 1560s on). He is a rare representative of court life and their taste in theatre under Elizabeth I's early years - and so an article on him should be included, despite what little other information there is on him. External links will mostly have to be to sites that enable people to purchase hard copies of his books, if this is acceptable. 172.188.60.42 13:58, 2 August 2007 (UTC)| Thomas Garter 2 Aug 07 Not begun   172.188.60.42 13:58, 2 August 2007 (UTC)| George Gascoigne   not yet assessed   Thomas Goffe   not yet assessed   Arthur Golding   not yet assessed   Robert Greene   not yet assessed   Richard Hathwaye   not yet assessed   William Haughton   not yet assessed   Thomas Heywood   not yet assessed   Thomas Hughes   not yet assessed   Ben Jonson   not yet assessed   Thomas Kyd   not yet assessed   Thomas Legge   not yet assessed   Thomas Lodge   not yet assessed   Thomas Lupton   not yet assessed   John Lyly   not yet assessed   Christopher Marlowe   not yet assessed   John Marston   not yet assessed   Philip Massinger   not yet assessed   Thomas Middleton   not yet assessed   Anthony Munday   not yet assessed   Thomas Nashe   not yet assessed   Thomas Norton   not yet assessed   George Peele   not yet assessed   John Philip   not yet assessed   John Pickering   not yet assessed   Henry Porter   not yet assessed   Thomas Preston   not yet assessed   William Rankins   not yet assessed   Samuelk Rowley   not yet assessed   William Rowley   not yet assessed   James Shirley   not yet assessed   Philip Sidney   not yet assessed   Wentworth Smith   not yet assessed   Cyril Tourneur   not yet assessed   John Webster   not yet assessed   George Wilkins   not yet assessed   [edit] Plays Article Assessed Status Pending tasks Assessed by All's Lost by Lust   not yet assessed   Arden of Faversham   not yet assessed   Bartholomew Fair   not yet assessed   The Birth of Merlin   not yet assessed   Cardenio   not yet assessed   The Changeling (play)   not yet assessed   The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus   not yet assessed   The Duchess of Malfi   not yet assessed   Eastward Hoe   not yet assessed   Edward II (play)   not yet assessed   Every Man in His Humour   not yet assessed   Every Man Out of His Humour   not yet assessed   Gorboduc (play)   not yet assessed   The Jew of Malta   not yet assessed   King Leir   not yet assessed   The Knight of the Burning Pestle   not yet assessed   Locrine   not yet assessed   The London Prodigal   not yet assessed   Mother Redcap   not yet assessed   A New Way to Pay Old Debts   not yet assessed   Parnassus plays   not yet assessed   Rollo Duke of Normandy   not yet assessed   The Second Maiden's Tragedy   not yet assessed   Sejanus (play)   not yet assessed   Sir John Oldcastle   not yet assessed   Sir Thomas More (play)   not yet assessed   The Spanish Tragedy   not yet assessed   Tamburlaine (play)   not yet assessed   The Tamer Tamed   not yet assessed   The Alchemist 2 Aug 07 B-class Introduction, background and history of performance is good. Plot summary could be padded out, with more textual detail. A brief analysis of criticism regarding the play would also be worthwhile. Section on Characterisation (and its use for Jonson as a satirist) could be included.

A good idea would be to include information on the various techniques in the play that resemble those used in Medieval Morality Plays, which Jonson could possibly have seen as a child (some weren't stopped till 1580s) and had as an influence. Characterisation section could be improved. Needs more links to outside literature.
